Fired For Being Over-Exposed: Reporter Sarah Tressler Fired for Stripping

Journalists, as a general rule, hate to let themselves become the story. However, there are exceptions, and one of them has just left the Houston Chronicle’s newsroom. Her name is Sarah Tressler, and she is a high society reporter with a degree from NYU who just happens to also rock the pole in a pair of six-inch heels and not terribly much else:

And if you’re curious what exactly that experience entails, never fear – Tressler keeps her own blog about the experience of taking clothes off for money. There are also warnings on the blog toward any men who might think of dating a stripper – according to Tressler, it’s not as cool as you might think. Here are some of her reasons:

9. We’re kind of manipulative, even if we’re not trying to be.

10. Don’t get in without an iron-clad way to get out. Or you’ll lose your house (and/or wife, and/or sanity).
